Reminder that years ago it was found out that the FBI straight up made up a whole bunch of fake forensic sciences, plural. People have gone to jail and been executed due to literally pseudoscience.

Hair forensics, for instance, is totally nonsense.

They admitted it.

Braid came out 4 years after Cave Story which in my memory was the first big deal indie game so this is some wild revisionism

I think the most discouraging thing about all this AI stuff is I feel like it's just deepening the long term game of lauding a dev *until* something dire comes out. Workplace abuses, AI use, theft, sexual harassment, abusive hiring practices, etc. Like just waiting for a shoe to drop all the time.

When I was in Costco not pissing my pants I saw a ton of TVs being advertised as having AI features and it's just fucking motion smoothing
This reminds me of how the headphones I've been eyeing advertise that they use AI, which would have been a turnoff had I not read further and seen that's just trained signal processing, not generative slop.

The really insulting thing here is comparing someone who worked for decades making fantastic art that enthralled generations of people the world over to an internet garbage person. Reiner deserves better not because of some concept of decorum but because he was a better human being by any metric.

4) All this AI bullshit is a desperate ploy to never pay a human being a wage. They want slaves and robots
5) Disney agreeing to this is a huge move to further normalize AI and manufacture consent for it
6) All corporations and all Republicans literally do everything they can to bring back slavery

1) this sucks
2) isn't this is insane from a brand protection standpoint?? cuz people are just gonna make vids of Mickey doing 9/11 while getting sucked off by pregnant Elsa I guess
3) Disney's fear of like 5 cartoons from the 1920s becoming public domain is greater than that????

Israel hunted a 70 year old lady down with a gun drone and then hoovered above to make sure she bled out next to her dying son. They both join almost 1,000 Palestinians Israel has massacred or maimed in its genocide during the "ceasefire".

I'm sorry, a COLLEGE student wrote this???? If I were to guess the age of the child that wrote this, it'd be in the 11 to 14 range, the sentences and vocabulary are mind-numbingly simple.

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

🧵⬇️
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Call of Duty isn't even hiding the fact that loads of its calling cards and other unlockables are AI generated this year.

For one of the biggest video game franchises in the world this is pretty disgusting...
